Complaint about cashless payment on the first day of Jazz Fest
Sunshine and blue skies on the first day of Jazz Fest, but many people sang blue due to payment issues
On Friday, the first day of the 2023 New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival kicked off. Fest attendees were soothed by the sunshine and blue sky. However, many people were screaming at the newly implemented cashless payment system. People who spoke with WDSU said the slow checkout process resulted in long lines for food and drink. Many people report that this was at a vendor at the festival grounds. WDSU is awaiting a response from festival organizers.
